She’s no longer with us but this is Martha the Rat, asleep in my pocket and cuddling my hand. I miss her!

Pretty self explanatory. Post animals, post pets, post stuff about animals and pets!

Oh no, that's a misunderstanding, I do not live near them, I meant to say I want to live near the hotsprings they frequent, but unfortunately that's not possible with my goal of owning a small zoo oneday, I'm jealous of anyone who does too! I'm currently midwest of the US
I actually work in the tech industry, I was essentially forced into a room with nothing but a computer for many years of my childhood and as a result forgot that my dream was to work with exotic animals for a very long time, and now i'm stuck in a profession I hate, honestly.
Working my way through affording herpetology schooling in florida (I feel as though I need a doctorate to do what I want properly, the credentials alone are somewhat necessary for convincing people of things), while studying as much as I can personally in the mean time.
I messaged you. I think it might be worth looking into other locations if you can manage it. I really hope you can achieve your dream job! Herpetologists are cool people.
